glish and Scottish societies for banquet in
honor of the Queens jubilee reported to tbs

scinded. The majority of the committee,

van, reported in favor of resembling the Or

strants be given leave to withdraw. By

A Protest Against Its Use.
BOSTON, June 20.-An immense meeting
was held in Faneuil Hall tonight to protest
against the use of that hall tomorrow night
by British and Scotch societies for banquet
in honor of the Queens jubilee. Owing to
an alleged informally in the making of the
permit the hall was not opened tonight
until O'Clock and in the meantime large
crowds were addressed outside of doors by
E. NJ. Chamberlain, Rev. P. A. McKenna
and Hon. Philip Doherty. As soon as the
doors were opened the crowd surged into the
hall, soon filing it in every nook and corner.
John Boyle O'Reilly opened the meeting in a
fiery speech, denouncing those who favored
the use of the sacred edifce for such cele-
bration. Other speeches were made
by Fire Commissioner John r. Murphy,
John A. Coffey, F. S. Pickett and Andrew
Garbett, all of whom condemned in the
strongest possible terms the action of the
aldermen in granting the permit for the ban
quet. The speeches outside were of the same
tenor and worked up the immense crowd to
a high pitch of excitement. Lawyer Coffey
told the audience that by getting the Mayor
to veto the order granting the permit the
difficulty might be overcome. Much harsh
language was used by the speakers, but there
was no sign of violence being used. A COM
mittee was finally appointed to wait upon
the Mayor and if possible secure the desired

seph r. Banks, a real estate agent. Banks is a
Republican. and he and Littleton belong to the
opposing factions of the Republican party in
Tennessee. Banks was one of the active oppo-
nents of Littleton in the late municipal election,
when Littleton was the Republican nominee for
Mayor. By the co operation of Banks and the
faction to which he belongs Littleton was de-
feated. and the issue of Littleton's paper for
last week was very bitter on those who opposed
him, giving most unsavoSy record of many of

A MISSOURI FEUD.
A Warfare in Which Ten Men Have Been Slain
An Appeal for Military Assistance.

OZARK, No, Dec. 24-Col. Amos Stone, of
this city, returned from Stone county yesterday
and says that deadly warfare is raging near
Galena, in that county. Very little is known
of the history of the feud. but it seems that the
Terry brothers, FIVE in number, living near May
bury's ferry, on White river, have for years de-
fed the law and intimidated the community.
They have been charged with various crimes,
including horse-stealing. and finally vigilance
committee was organized to drive them out Of
the country. The Terrys, with their friends over
awed the leaders of the regulating movement
and the outlaws held their ground. Two weeks
ago one OF the Terrys shot from ambush
and killed. Soon after this one Weeks, mem
Der of the anti-Terry faction, was shot to pieces
by unknown assassns. 4 few days after the
death of Weeks Garrett. a friend of the
Terrys fired upon by Grant Wagner and
w. Ambrose who had secreted themselves be-
hind tree top. Ambrose was armed with q
double barreled breech- loading shotgun and
Wagner with a repeating Winchester rifle.
Garrett carries a Winchester rifle, and when
fired upon by the assassinS jumped from his
horse and took a position behind tree,
and about forty-fi yards from Ambrose and
Wagner. The fight which ensued lasted about
fifteen minutes, during which time twenty shots
were exchanged. Wagner received two mortal
wounds and his ally (Ambrosel fled, leaving
Garrett master of the field. About this time
Frank Ambrose, brother of William who had
heard the shooting, came upon the scene armed
with revolver and opened fire on Garrett,
killing him at the second shot, and receiving
himself mortal wound. Ambrose then took
his wounded brother home the latter dying in
few hours 1t is said that ten have been
killed in that neighborhood. and that one has
been made to Governor Marmaduke to send
troops to the scene.
